Battered Love
Ive been broken, I've been beat, I've been brutalized
My time has been taken and not utilized.
My dreams, my hopes, ambitions all crushed
All because your heart was so full of distrust
Will you ever believe my love was strong,
but after what you done is now forever gone?
I allowed you to hit me, I was your prey
I thought that was love and I had to pay.
I gave my heart to you outta pure love,
you demolished it just to prove your power to shove.
You were a man, or so it seemed
but you were cruel, evil and mean
Do you know what it's like to have your dreams torn to shreds?
Or to feel deep regret, for thoughts that run through your head.
Let me give you an example of all that you've done,
let me show you how it feels, cause you have not won.
I have become a stronger person, with no thanks to you
I may have been battered, but I am one of the few.
I bounce back from all things great and small
You may have hurt me, but I stand proud and tall.
Now it's your turn to feel battered and beat,
Cause now I stand on my own two feet.
Do you wake in the morning wondering where I have gone?
Do you even care that I am powerful and strong?
Do you feel the loss of me, because you can no longer hit?
Do you feel in your stomache, a dark and bottomless pit?
Is something missing again in your life?
Do you miss battering your children and wife?
Let me give you these words to play in your mind,
A love like mine, you will never again find.
Do you think that all women are weak to your charms?
Let me give you my thoughts, let me set your alarms!
I was just one of your puppets, that you can see.
Not all women will be anything like me.
One day you will find your dreams broken down.
all because you kicked
me into the ground
You will find that your heart has been torn into
because you are cruel and you will always be you
